So I have never posted before but thought it was a good time! I own both an M4 and an M2. I have MSR intakes on both and could not be happier! The product itself is a piece of well crafted art! The amount of time George(@M6beast) spends on making it perform to the highest levels is truly amazing! The performance is unmatched and the sound is unreal! I can't argue up against any another system cause I have not personally run them on my cars but I do know from hearing others that I picked the perfect intake for me! Everyone has their own opinions and their own styles and the MSR intake is certainly the only intake I would recommend!

Not sure if botched product promotion or a genuine attempt to share a good product

Regardless... 4,000$ for an intake that does little to nothing unless combined with other bolt-ons and a tune doesn't really sound like a good bang for your buck imo

It's not 4K! And I am just complimenting a great product!

Beautiful piece indeed! And I have been following his development since day one of the M2 Intake! Was very eager to see results on Dyno. And had $ at hand to order immediately once numbers were released.

Stock car vs only MSR Intake.

And also Intake on a car with a couple mods to see how it played with the added mods.

Was very interested in IAT comparisons of stock vs MSR Intake

Sadly no numbers have been released. Sound is amazing on the videos but some of us are in search of also measurable improvements.

I think I saw your post on IG, nice choice of color.

I grew impatient on waiting for #'s and decided going a different route.

I completely understand! I don't think he has released numbers yet but he has said they are on par with what his other versions have produced!
Like I mentioned I have it on both my cars and love it! Some people may like it and others may like other intakes. I didn't mind waiting but I get how some might not want to!

F2X Factory intake is about as optimal as a closed system can be. F87 adopts MPPK approach coming as a half open system with a hole open at bottom half, the cooler area of engine compartment, a good balance between flow capacity and heat isolation.

A completely open system is essentially trading IAT for flow capacity, with which some of bigger turbo builds will find gains from some point on before heat soaked, and the rest should see power lost more or less, sucking hotter air all the time.

There are already a few well designed expensive F87 systems out there, open or close. However, at this point none of them live up to the advertised gains even on dyno.

Aftermarket intakes on stock turbo late model BMWs are snake oil and cause all sorts of annoying driveability issues. Dyno after dyno have shown this. If you want induction noise, cut open more of the lower airbox.

I'd be afraid to run that in the rain. Almost as bad as the Dinan E36 intake design that was essentially a water puddle vacuum.

I run an ITG panel filter, I think a panel filter in the stock system is great. If I had to spend my money I would buy the the Dinian system

could an intake cause a rough idle? Like the RPMs fluctuate about 70 RPM and you can hear the exhaust getting louder and softer too.
